Mysterious Fairy Encounter

General area, Llangattock

In the picturesque village of Llangattock, nestled in the Welsh countryside, a bizarre encounter took place that left a hunter shaken. The local landlord, Richard the Tailor, was known to keep company with fairies, and it seems one of his supernatural friends took a dislike to a hunter who had upset him. The hunter found himself being whisked away from the village by unseen hands, which pushed and pulled him until he reached Newport, a distance of around twenty miles. Although exhausted, the invisible force then motivated him to walk all the way back to Llangattock, a feat that must have tested his endurance to the limit.
